Subject: Jump to directory from a *Locate* buffer
Date: Wed, 14 Jan 2015 22:35:05 +0100	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <87k30phwqe.fsf@wmi.amu.edu.pl> (raw)

Hi list,

imagine that I run M-x locate to find some file, and I want to open
Dired in the directory one of the found files is in.  Is there a way to
do it or should I write some Elisp for that?

TIA,
